The Billionaire Who Stole My Heart novel Chapter 1229

Holden chuckled, "So, when's the big day? You two tying the knot anytime soon?"

With two kids already, it seemed overdue in his eyes.

Isaac, with his arm around Brittany, replied, "We're on it."

Brittany blinked in surprise. How come she was the last to know?

Holden nodded, "Make sure I get an invite."

"Of course."

The christening party was a blast, stirring up quite the buzz in Imperial City.

William Dillion and Hannah arrived together.

Years had passed, yet William remained a bachelor. However, the gentleness once prominent in his demeanor had now been edged with a sharper, more defined aura - a transformation wrought by years in the cutthroat business world.

Many brought gold bracelets as gifts, but William, ever the innovator, gifted a membership card to a premium baby products brand, saying, "Congratulations."

Brittany, having forgotten her past interactions with William, recognized him only as a senior colleague, "Thank you."

Aware of her amnesia, William exchanged a few pleasantries before making an early exit.

On the drive home, noticing William's gloom, the driver attempted to offer some comfort, "Sir, don't be too hard on yourself. Ms. Lynette is doing well, and it's time you moved on."

William's unrequited affection for Brittany was an open secret within the Tanner family. His abstinence from romantic engagements was attributed to his feelings for her.

"I know," he sighed.

For William, Brittany was the one that got away. A flame ignited in college and still burning, even now as she mothered two children.

He pressed a hand to his forehead, "Don't take me back to the Tanner estate. I'd rather go to my apartment."
